[PATCH 18/19] alpha: atomics: Add smp_read_barrier_depends() to release/relaxed atomics

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Mon Oct 23 2017 - 17:09:58 EST


From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@xxxxxxx>

As part of the fight against smp_read_barrier_depends(), we require
dependency ordering to be preserved when a dependency is headed by a load
performed using an atomic operation.

This patch adds smp_read_barrier_depends() to the _release and _relaxed
atomics on alpha, which otherwise lack anything to enforce dependency
ordering.
